CaptA I believe I read a G&G article where it seemed the intersection of multiple lasers were used to ''bleach'' inclusions using heat alone. Or is it my runaway imagination?Date: 7/7/2007 1:20:54 AM

It can''t. Laser drilling always leaves behind a hole of some sort. It''s through that hole that the acid reaches the inclusion. The hole can later be filled with glass, or disguised by the lasering method used (the ''KM'' Diagem referred to is a method by which the laser extends an internal feather to the surface rather than burning a hole in from the outside... it resembles a natural feather/cleavage to the untrained eye), but you need the hole to bleach the inclusion.Date: 7/6/2007 9:18:15 PM

Can you please explain to me how a laser can disperse a cleaning solution into a diamond without leaving a hole?
I am assuming the ''black'' carbon needs to be taken out of the Diamond inclusion.
Bleach mean change or take color out of a substance??? or paint??
